Subject: RE: Etiquette question #2
I have very sad news to report. Christie from New York has met with a terrible accident. While she was walking along a country road, a cropduster flew over. His landing gear became entangled with the tuning keys of the guitar that was stuck to her forehead.
Christie was dragged along for about half an hour before being slammed against the side of a barn, by the unsuspecting cropduster, who makes a common practice of buzzing peoples outbuildings while laughing maniacally; he admitted that he does this because he feels the need to keep up with the stereotype of the wild and crazy flyboy.
Christie died instantly. The guitar, however, being of Taiwanese construction, came through unscathed, and quite successfully detached from Christie's head.
I think that few of us will forget the adventures of this brave young woman.
